God’s love extends to everybody. If you can just open your heart, there’s no reason you can’t be saved if you aren’t already redeemed. Just know that while it may be a little scary if you notice some of the signs you aren’t yet saved, this is the first step towards correcting that. A little discomfort now is worth an eternity in heaven, so if you suspect you aren’t saved, talk to your pastor or priest about your worries, pray, and continue to actively worship to invite God into your heart.
How Do You Know if You Aren’t Saved?
As a Christian, the Holy Spirit fills the heart of God’s redeemed. If the Holy Spirit hasn’t touched you, you will know it. Sin won’t disgust you, the Bible won’t invigorate you, and you’ll struggle to find God’s graces in the world.
